Second Showing

Our little border of lavender, an impulsive addition in anticipation of our favorite lavender-lover JoAnn’s visit earlier this summer, is in the midst of a second round of flowering. In their sunny spot, they seem to be quite happy, which initially felt a little odd since we’ve had so much rain and cloud cover this summer. I always thought lavender liked it hot and dry. Perhaps there is room for flexibility there too. 

Whatever the reason for this second showing, it’s lovely to see and experience – as lavender is not just visually appealing – the scent is intoxicating, and a bonus to brush as one walks by the deep end of the pool. It’s nestled in among some mint as well, lending a delicious olfactory duet to unsuspecting swimmers.
